<a name="id-1.7.2.5.4"></a><h2>Description</h2>
<p>This function template creates and returns an <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="overloaded_function.html" title="Class template overloaded_function">overloaded_function</a></code></code> object that overloads all the specified functions <code class="computeroutput">f1</code>, <code class="computeroutput">f2</code>, etc.</p>
<p>The function types are internally determined from the template parameter types so they do not need to be explicitly specified. Therefore, this function template usually has a more concise syntax when compared with <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="overloaded_function.html" title="Class template overloaded_function">overloaded_function</a></code></code>. This is especially useful when the explicit type of the returned  <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="overloaded_function.html" title="Class template overloaded_function">overloaded_function</a></code></code> object does not need to be known (e.g., when used with Boost.Typeof's <code class="computeroutput">BOOST_AUTO</code>, C++11 <code class="computeroutput">auto</code>, or when the overloaded function object is handled using a function template parameter, see the <a class="link" href="../boost_functional_overloadedfunction/tutorial.html" title="Tutorial"> Tutorial</a> section).</p>
<p>The maximum number of functions to overload is given by the  <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="../BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_O_1_7_3_3.html" title="Macro BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX">BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX</a></code></code> configuration macro.</p>
<p><span class="bold"><strong>Note:</strong></span> In this documentation, <code class="computeroutput">__function_type__</code> is a placeholder for a symbol that is specific to the implementation of this library.</p>
<p><span class="bold"><strong>See:</strong></span> <a class="link" href="../boost_functional_overloadedfunction/tutorial.html" title="Tutorial"> Tutorial</a> section, <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="overloaded_function.html" title="Class template overloaded_function">overloaded_function</a></code></code>,  <code class="computeroutput"><code class="computeroutput"><a class="link" href="../BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_O_1_7_3_3.html" title="Macro BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX">BOOST_FUNCTIONAL_OVERLOADED_FUNCTION_CONFIG_OVERLOAD_MAX</a></code></code>. </p>
